New Delhi:Mumbai attack mastermind and Jamaat-ud-Dawah Chief Hafiz Saeed will remain under house arrest in Lahore for 90 more days after the expiry of his three-month detention period which ended yesterday. 
Pakistan’s Punjab Government decided to extend the duration of the house arrest of Saeed and his four aides under the country’s anti-terrorism act and the notification for it would be issued soon, an official of the Punjab government’s home department said. 

The official said a consultative meeting on Saeed’s detention had been held under interior minister ChaudhryNisar in which a decision to extend the house arrest was taken.
The government on January 30 had put Saeed and the four leaders under house arrest in Lahore for their alleged involvement in activities prejudicial to peace and security. Nawaz Sharif Government detained Saeed under pressure from the Trump administration.
